I hope I live to see Pete Hegseth get what he deserves.

Too many houses built in the US during the past 50+ years are not within reasonable walking distance of anything except other houses.
The system cannot be fixed by the system. If that *was* possible, it would've been fixed already.
I do not want to create an account or open a subscription I just want to buy a thing and never hear from you again why is this so hard.
Liberals who defended Biden in the face of his obvious mental decline ("It's just a stutter") made it more difficult to remove Trump from office.
Dems seem to believe that 47's unpopularity will be enough for them to win Congress this year and the presidency in '28 w/o them having to advocate for any changes that actually make people's lives better.
Sounds an awful lot like the bumper sticker "Don't blame me, I voted for _____." People's civic responsibility doesn't begin and end with elections.
War criminal solidarity.
Every single Democrat in the House and Senate needs to be saying this today. Every single one.
Call them.
Four headlines in which Marjorite Taylor Greene, Tucker Carolson, Piers Morgan, and Alex Jones condemn Trump for his genocidal threats to Iran.
Imagine being a moderate Republican and getting outflanked on decency, morality, and basic humanity by these four nutters
you have to get him out of office and you have to do it today
even if it gets blocked you force an impeachment vote right now
how else can you live with yourself if he follows through with this and you didn’t do everything you could to stop it
Same for me in Michigan with my two D senators and my D representative. I called them all today.
The case for using the 25th Amendment keeps getting stronger.

Trump said he wants a $1,500,000,000,000 war budget—one and a half trillion dollars. That’s double what it was just a few years ago, which was already obscene.
Remember: Generational poverty is not moral failure. Generational wealth is not virtue.
A lot of Democrats appear to have learned nothing from the past 10 years.
If Dems keep pushing the narrative that Clinton and Harris lost because they are women—instead of that they ran terrible campaigns on unpopular issues-- we’re going to end up with a male candidate next time, like Newsom, who’s just as terrible, but male, and is going to lose to a Republican in '28.
Do your best to not become desensitized to the parade of horrors that is the U.S.
Trump's reckless war on Iran will weaken him and the U.S. That will make him angry. Beware of what he'll do next. It won't be good.
The US *does not* want to "make the world safe for democracy." Heck, the US doesn't even want to make the US safe for democracy.
There's always exactly the right number of Fettermans (or Sinemas or Manchins) for the Democratic Party to give its blessing to what Republicans want to do. That's because most Dems want the same things Rs do.

Inaction or silence in the face of wrongdoing acts as silent consent, effectively authorizing evil to continue.
A week of war on Iran cost the U.S. over $11 billion.
The problem with Trump's war on Iran is not that there's "no strategy" behind it. It'd be just a wrong with strategy.
People who have had a lot of experiences are more interesting than people who have a lot of stuff.
Fascists never stop unless they are stopped. They'll turn on you too. No one is safe.
There are billions of coincidences every second. We only notice the few (per week? per month?) that seem significant for some reason.
Don't understand how you can witness the past 10 yrs and still believe in fixing the Dem Party by voting. Rigged primaries twice-- '16 and '20-- so the establishment candidate would be nominated for pres over much-more-popular Sanders. In '24 they didn't respect voters enough to even hold primaries!
